2 arrested after Mother’s Day shooting in Victorville

VICTORVILLE, Calif. (VVNG.com) — A man and a woman were arrested following a verbal domestic dispute that ended with a third man being shot at, officials said.

It happened on May 13, 2018, when deputies responded to the 12300 block of Glenwood Lane after receiving a report of a shooting.

When deputies arrived on scene they located at least four shell casings laying in the street along Teakwood Drive. “I heard 6 gunshots and within 2 minutes all the police began arriving,” a witness told Victor Valley News.

The victim, a 34-year-old male reported he and the suspect, identified as Johnny Hicks, 38, of Ontario were in an argument.

According to a sheriff’s news release, Hicks pointed a handgun at the victim and fired several shots. The victim was not hit by the gunfire and called 911. “When Hicks learned the police had been called, a woman at the scene gave him the keys to her car so he could leave the location,” stated the release.

Deputies arriving at the location found the woman, identified as Parvaneh Jones, 37, of Victorville sitting in Hicks’ car and she was in possession of the firearm used to shoot at the victim. With the assistance of Sheriff’s Aviation, 40-King-7, deputies located Hicks on Little Beaver Street, in Victorville. Hicks was detained without incident.

Hicks, a convicted felon, was arrested and booked at High Desert Detention Center for assault on a person/with a firearm, willful discharge of a firearm/with gross negligence, felon in possession of a firearm, and felon in possession of ammunition.
